The Cummer: one of the South's finest art museums by noidiotsplease
Located on the river in Jacksonville's historic and artsy Riverside neighborhood, The Cummer Museum of Art & Gardens is one of the finest in the South. Famous for its collections of significant European and American oil paintings, The Cummer also boasts one of the world's largest collections of Meissen porcelain. Various touring exhibitions of some of the world's most treasured and renowned master artists also call The Cummer home for months at a time.
Behind The Cummer's impeccable galleries are two acres of traditional Italian and English style riverfront gardens. Stroll through the gardens to the river for a view of the downtown skyline straddling a sharp curve in the river.
Even if you only have a casual appreciation for fine art, you'll certainly enjoy The Cummer!
